| Homework policy and quizzes | This semester we will publish 6-7 homework assignments (approximately 1 assignment every 2 weeks), which will not be for submission.
The homework grade will be determined by 2 quizzes (each quiz you take gives you 8% MAGEN in your final grade). The quizzes will contain questions from the homework assignments, and short questions about the material covered during the lectures.
The first quiz will take place on 7.12 and 8.12. The second quiz will take place on 10.1 and 11.1. In order to get the MAGEN grade of a specific quiz, you only need to attend one of the 2 dates of that particular quiz (you will have to sign up for the date you choose. More details will be given when we approach the first quiz).
More information can be found in the General Information file under the Syllabus tab
